Could you show some consideration for your fellow posters and follow the conventions of using mixed case for your messages, please? It would make them a lot easier to read!
As far as your question, goes, I can imagine using ebooks for Dickens (provided you use a reliable source - some of the Dickens ebooks out there are missing large pieces of text, and are otherwise full of errors. But Shakespeare? No. Most modern readers need editions of Shakespeare with notes and annotations; a "raw" text is not that much use.
